for a .5 acre lawn, just about anything will do for a mower, but just watch out for cheap steering. Some of the low buck models have very sloppy steering that makes it difficult to mow in a straight line. Also check into parts availibility and don't be afraid to ask the salesmen lots of questions, I know salesmen will talk up a storm why their product is better than the competitors. I like to study spec sheets and sales literature to compair deck thicknesses, turning radious, special features, etc... Maybe you should go and try out a few different brands, salesmen will be more than willing to let you try something out, because they want to make a sale!, and if you haggle with them, and let them know what you like about their competitiors machine, you might get them to throw in something extra, or maybe get alittle deal, especially, say if you wanted a bagger, you might haggle with them, and get one thrown in free with the tractor purchase. The difference between a mulcher and a bagger, is a bagger collects all the clippings in a hopper, and then you dump the hopper when it gets full somewhere. A mulcher cuts the grass up kinda fine, and leaves it there on the ground. hope this helps, and good luck!
